An intelligence briefing released last week by the Pentagon’s Joint Staff indicated Islamic State group terrorists were crossing European borders “mostly unimpeded.” The briefing outlined legal and illegal ways terrorists cross borders, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
The briefing also said European security measures have done little to stop Islamic terrorists.
The briefing discussed how the influx of Syrian refugees into Europe was overpowering counter-terrorism efforts, which is a major concern as some of those Syrian refugees resettle in America.
“That ties directly to security efforts here,” one official told the Free Beacon.
A total of 868,282 Syrians have entered Europe since January, mostly through Turkey and Greece, according to the International Organization for Migration. European and Turkish leaders agreed on Sunday to work on measures to reduce the flow of refugees. Europe will provide over $3 billion in aid in exchange for Turkey strengthening its borders.
Turkish authorities detained 1,300 migrants on Monday, Agence France Presse reported.
President Barack Obama has insisted the refugee crisis poses no security threat to the U.S. despite events that suggest otherwise — primarily the terror attacks in Paris, in which at least one terrorist posed as a Syrian refugee. It was reported he had a fake passport that allowed him to enter Greece from Turkey.
His passport was believed to be one of 3,500 blank Syrian passports seized by the Islamic State group when it took over the Syrian city of Raqqa. European authorities indicated the Islamic State group also possessed machinery and stamps used to validate these passports, which have been sold to Turkish smugglers, who in turn sold them to refugees.
The news that radical Islamic terrorists are entering Europe unimpeded only reinforces what we’ve known all along about refugees — that some are terrorists using the crisis as a cover to spread terror across the globe.
